Description

Hello, now it is found that renderToTile method in CustomLayerInterface only supports globe and mercator projection, and it can only be fully supported when there is a three-dimensional terrain. Can you support any projection? If supported, this custom interface will become very common.

Research direction

Start with the CustomLayerInterface.renderToTile method and trace its existing globe, mercator, and three-dimensional terrain paths. Define and validate what support for any projection would require; done means the interface works across projections rather than only the cases described.
